...gotta make sure they take the tire off the rim when repairing if you want a real clean job...that is if you like to keep the entire rim clean.

OMG, I almost peed my pants when I read the above line. NOW THAT IS FUNNY.

Alas I curbed a wheel on my M5, exactly 21 hours after picking it up from the dealer. Never did that in the 550 with Active Steering. Of course what I consider curbing a wheel and what moschse considers curbing a wheel are two different things

Now will nyrimfix come to Chicago?
Thank you very much, I'll be here all week, don't forget to tip your waitresses!

Ouch! That looks nasty! Don't worry, it's a scratch and very fixable although I'm sure it really hurts to see your wheel in this condition.

Post up a pic of the fixed rim when it's done!

Update?
Laziness and a two day trip to the windy city has stalled on the repair. Hopefully this week. Thanks for asking!
